The promoted side’s coach explains why the Nigeria international was only handed 30 minutes against the Red Devils on Wednesday
Brentford coach Thomas Frank has revealed the reason new signing Frank Onyeka played for only 30 minutes in their pre-season friendly against Manchester United on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old sealed a transfer to the promoted side from FC Midtjylland and he was handed his debut on Wednesday, as the Bees twice came from behind to draw 2-2 against the Red Devils at Old Trafford.
The Nigerian forward was introduced in the 61st minute as a replacement for Max Haygarth and he came close to finding the back of the net in the 78th minute after combining well with Ethan Pinnock, but his effort went inches wide.
